Perhaps the best symbol of all the technologies is the mobile phone. Almost everyone has one and most people would be lost in their daily routine①without it. However, some have suggested that it causes medical problems and should be limited. But this tiny little tool is just too important to get rid of. 段落大意 第一段引出

【译文】
我们生活在信息时代,这是一个沟通和连接的时代。也许所有的这些技术最好的代表就是手机。几乎每个人都有一部手机,如果没有它,大多数人在日常生活中会感到茫然无措。然而,一些人认为手机会引发疾病,应该对其有所限制。但是这个小小的工具实在太重要了,我们离不开它。
使用手机的好处是极大的。在商务贸易方面,手机可以让公司与客户、雇主和雇员之间保持联络等等。如今人们可以在办公室以外的地方办公并且永远不会脱离信息圈。事实上,很难想象我们没有手机该如何工作。
此外,通过给孩子配一部手机可以让家长对孩子安心。如今当孩子们在学校或者和朋友一起玩时,家长和孩子之间只有一通电话的距离。这对于任何有紧急情况要报告或处于危险境地的人也同样适用。手机确实能成为救星。
不过另一方面,一些人称手机导致了诸如心脏和大脑方面的疾病。在这些问题上我不是专家,但是依我看,如果手机被证明是危险的,政府就不会允许它们销售了,或者至少会出台更为严格的安全标准。
简而言之,手机对于我们的日常生活而言确实太重要了。如果未来有结论表明手机对人的健康造成损害,那么我确信(相关)法律一定会出台,保证手机的安全性。但是目前,(手机)明显还是利大于弊。
真题展示
[全国新高考Ⅱ2022·B篇] We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools.Many young people don't even realize it's new.For them, it's just normal.
This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.I had brought a children's book to read.It had simple words and colorful pictures—a perfect match for his age.
Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures.As I read, he reaches out and pokes (戳) the page with his finger.
What's up with that He just likes the pictures, I thought.Then I turned the page and continued.He poked the page even harder.I nearly dropped the book.I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid
Then I realized what was happening.He was actually a stranger to books.His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them.He thought my storybook was like that.
Sorry, kid.This book is not part of your high-tech world.It's an outdated, lifeless thing.An antique, like your grandfather.Well, I may be old, but I'm not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking.I edit video and produce audio.I use mobile payment.I've even built websites.
There's one notable gap in my new-media experience, however.I've spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio.But that didn't stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.
Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star—two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head.But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.
1.What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2 ( )
B
A.Provided shelter for me. B.Became very clear to me.
C.Took the pressure off me. D.Worked quite well on me.
[解析] 词义猜测题。根据第一段内容可知,作者认为许多年轻人没有意识到多媒体工具的发展提供了新的叙事方式;再根据第五段内容,尤其是其中的realized可知,作者通过孙子的行为意识到,孙子更熟悉平板电脑而不是书。由此可推知,画线短语表示这段经历让作者“清楚地意识到”许多年轻人对当下的多媒体时代的态度。画线短语与B项意思相近,故选B项。
【语篇导读】文章主要讲述了春节期间,作者给孙子拿了一本儿童读物,孙子却以为这本读物是平板电脑,不停地用手指戳书的故事。这引发了作者对当下多媒体发展的思考。
2.Why did the kid poke the storybook ( )
A
A.He took it for a tablet computer. B.He disliked the colorful pictures.
C.He was angry with his grandpa. D.He wanted to read it by himself.
[解析] 细节理解题。根据第五段中的He was actually a stranger to books.His father… He thought my storybook was like that.可知,作者的孙子用手指戳故事书是因为他把它当成了平板电脑。故选A项。
3.What does the author think of himself ( )
D
A.Socially ambitious. B.Physically attractive. C.Financially independent. D.Digitally competent.
[解析] 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的Well, I may be old, but I'm not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking.I edit video and produce audio.I use mobile payment. I've even built websites.可知,作者认为自己面对数码时代并非束手无策,他会编辑视频、制作音频、使用手机支付,甚至建立了网站。故选D项。
【微技能】根据事实细节合理推断信息
推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话,也可能是某几句话,在做题时考生要以文字信息为依据,既不能在原文中没有文字根据的情况下进行推理,也不能根据表面文字信息进行多步推理;也就是说,要做到判断有据、推论有理、忠实于原文。解题步骤:
4.What can we learn about the author as a journalist ( )
B
A.He lacks experience in his job. B.He seldom appears on television.
C.He manages a video department. D.He often interviews internet stars.
[解析] 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的There's one notable gap in my new-media experience, however. I've spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio.可知,作者很少出现在镜头前,即作者很少出现在电视节目中。故选B项。
【长难句分析】His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them.
句式分析:本句为主从复合句。which引导定语从句,修饰a tablet computer;that引导定语从句,修饰pictures;when引导时间状语从句。
句意:他的父亲经常用一台存有多彩图片的平板电脑逗这个男孩开心,当有人戳这些图片的时候,它们就会变得栩栩如生。
